Re: does anyone feel strange because they dont feel so anxiose?
I get this all the time. I'm in a stage at the mo where I feel like my anxiety reached a peak a few days ago and I was having severe panics and now I'm at the stage where I feel overall less anxious and slowed down which I know its probably just the aftermath of the stressful period I was in but its making me feel even more anxious than when I was in the mega anxious panicky stage if you know what I mean?
I think its just because I am so used to my mind going at 100mph with anxiety constantly, that it feels unreal to me for it to be slowed down. Worrying becomes such a habit.
